YOUR GOAL

Whether you are an individual, entrepreneur, or company — having your bank account frozen is always stressful and disruptive.

Freezing of funds by a bank is a situation that can paralyze your financial life: blocked accounts, inability to access your own money, failed payments, overdue obligations. In most cases, clients discover the freeze after the fact — when their card stops working and the bank refers to a “court order” or “bailiff’s decree.”

Your goal is to lift the bank account freeze as quickly as possible, restore access to your funds, and protect your rights legally.

For Individuals

Freezing of personal accounts often happens unexpectedly and causes panic. However, in most cases, the issue can be resolved without court proceedings if you act promptly and correctly.

Common reasons for freezing personal funds:

  • Enforcement service decisions due to debts (loans, alimony, fines, utility payments).
  • Erroneous or duplicate freeze due to data inaccuracies.
  • Freeze as part of a criminal investigation or tax inspection.
  • Court rulings to collect funds in favor of third parties.
  • Bank violations — freezing funds without proper grounds or client notification.

For Entrepreneurs and Companies

For businesses, account freezes mean not only loss of funds but also interruption of operations: it becomes impossible to pay taxes, salaries, or conduct transactions. Each day of blocking results in financial losses and penalties.

Common reasons for freezing business accounts:

  • Tax or enforcement service orders for debt collection.
  • Court disputes with contractors or government authorities.
  • Suspicion of financial operations subject to monitoring (AML/CFT).
  • Errors in company data or failure to update registration information.
  • Freeze as a preventive measure within commercial or criminal proceedings.

The main rule — act fast. The sooner you contact professionals, the higher your chances to lift the freeze quickly and minimize losses.

 CASE STUDY — FOR AN INDIVIDUAL (WITHOUT COURT)

Situation: A client contacted us after the bank froze their salary account. The reason turned out to be a funds freeze from an old enforcement case that had been closed years earlier. The bank, however, had not received updated information and continued to maintain the restriction.

Problem: The client couldn’t receive their salary or pay loans and bills. Independent appeals to the bank and enforcement office didn’t help — both institutions shifted responsibility to each other.

Our solution: The lawyers of Eurovector Law Firm promptly prepared attorney requests to the enforcement service and the bank. After receiving confirmation that the case was closed, we submitted a legal demand to lift the freeze with a copy of the closure order.

Result: Within 3 business days, the freeze was lifted, and full access to the account was restored. The client regained use of their funds without court intervention.

Conclusion: In many cases, a properly drafted legal request is enough. Professional communication with the bank and enforcement office saves clients time and money.

 CASE STUDY — FOR A COMPANY (COURT APPEAL)

Situation: A company received a notice from its bank about a freeze of its corporate account based on a court order in a criminal case in which it was not even a party. Payments to suppliers and employees stopped.

Problem: The investigative body imposed the freeze without sufficient grounds. The company couldn’t continue operations, and partners began demanding penalties for non-performance.

Our solution: The lawyers of Eurovector Law Firm filed a motion to the court to lift the freeze, justifying the absence of legal grounds. Financial statements, contracts, and proof of lawful fund origin were provided.

Result: The court granted the motion and ordered to immediately unfreeze the accounts. The next day, the bank restored full access, and the company resumed business operations.

Conclusion: Court appeal of an account freeze is an effective tool to protect business rights when banks or investigators act beyond the law. A strong legal position and an experienced attorney are the key to a fast and successful outcome.
